I wound up adding an update-grub after the grub install in the recipe 
that deloptes posted on the debian list today. And somewhere along the 
line I found I had NOT copied over the /usr tree of the old drive, which 
probably caused the next problem, that of my TDE login being bogus, so I 
copied that across and then re-installed the heart of TDE, 20 debs, 
reset /tmp's perms to 0777 and I'm off to the races now. Even have the 
spindle tuned up a bit better. At about 90 revs, in low gear, I can grab 
the chuck and can't slow it, period. I set the reverse bias up (I'm 
rigged to apply different bias settings to the pid.s depending on 
direction, and got the actual speed quite a bit more symmetrical with 
that).

I also have a limit3 between motions speed output, and pid.s.command to 
slow the reversal up a hair, but I believe I can speed that up some, but 
didn't play with that, (already long day) I was happy to get a feedback 
waveform that quite closely matched the pid.s.command. I can speed that 
up, presumably until I hear your servo chirping from the current limiter 
kicking in on the turn around.

As for checking voltage to the motor, I couldn't find an incandescent 
light bulb in the whole danged midden heap out there, so that didn't get 
done.

One thing I note is that an m5, or stop button click, coasts to a stop 
rather than being hauled down by your servo, so at some point I need to 
put a time delay in the disable when stopped path. m3 to m4 and back are 
in the 400ms time frame.

But its working better and smoother than it has for a while.  Now if I 
could find some hardware to actually mount the SSD, that would be a 
plus, as they didn't include any of that stuff, so its just hanging on 
the cables. No biggie, it doesn't weigh much.

Thanks Jon.

Cheers, Gene Heskett
